Here in California, the state boards of license vocational nursing, has also Psychiatric Technicians on them also. I was wandering has anyone ever wanted to work as a Psychiatric Technician, are do your state include that also with your licensing.


I am a proud mother of three beautyful daughter. I currently live in Los Angeles California. I've worked as a heathecare provider for almost 10 years. I am curently in school to pursue my MSN in nursing, and wants to work as a pediactric nurse, in public health.
